Scandalous story that shows how the map of Ukraine without the Peninsula, went on the air Zaporizhzhya channel “MTV-plus”, according to RBC. The Ministry of information policy of Ukraine is preparing an appeal to the editorial office of the TV channel with the requirement to explain the causes of the incident and “return the Crimea”.

I will remind that earlier already there was a scandal because publishing maps of Ukraine and the Russian Crimea in the Italian magazine Limes. Then the Ambassador of Ukraine in Italy asked the journal to correct the published map.

In addition, the Coca-Cola company on his page in the social network placed the ad where it shows a stylized map of Russia with Crimea. January 5, the Embassy of Ukraine in the USA expressed concern at the Coca-Cola company and the U.S. Department of state. Subsequently, the image was deleted from the page of the company.

Recall that the Crimea became part of Russia in 2014, according to the results of the referendum. Then the vast majority of island residents voted for reunification with Russia.
